My 2 W7 system did not exhibit issues on First Calibre Start after a boot.

specs, configs, OS is all good info to have
we are also told in at least one post that the freeze happens on 1st time calibre run after reboot, even if there was say 1 hour gap between those 2 events
So far it seems to be, not AV, not DLLs, not networked drives, not splash screen, not happening in XP, not specific books in library, and not start-up per se.
[ oh, and not on my PC, thankfully

maybe it IS time to try safe mode as we're running out of suspects
but hey, windows 10 is coming to save us all, or to be the new scapegoat, in just a few weeks time
